Ascension of the Goddess of Decay

Hello, everyone. If you're reading this, you may have read my other stories. I'm starting this one as a bit of a "getting back into it" story. (The synopsis will be further down) Both stories I've written will continue in the near future. (I have to re-read them because I've experienced a massive bout of memory loss.) Apologies for those of you waiting, but I had unavoidable circumstances that impeded my writing experiences. The cover isn't mine but it's been lightly photoshopped. If you want it taken down, tell me. (Signed by Author on April 25th, 2023) Anyways, time for the synopsis: Lia was a simple girl in her previous life. Well not really, considering she was the hit woman for the largest mafia organization that operated within the United States. Over the years, her exceedingly high kill count, and overall success rate was something to be afraid of. Her personality was something akin to pure confidence, bordering on arrogance. She dealt with people the same way she did her enemies. By ruining their lives in the most horrific ways. IE: Setting them up for FBI investigations, having their houses repossessed by the government, or even having them framed for a serious crime. Lia was someone that no one wanted to ever cross. If you did cross her, you might as well have signed your own death certificate! That was until she was smacked in the head by a falling piano. While following through on a hit, no less! I mean, come on! A piano?! that's unfathomably crazy. Well, despite getting hit by a literal piano, she still managed to finish the job. But the very next day, she choked on a sandwich and nearly died! Her luck seemed to have literally bottomed out. This "streak of bad luck" had continued in her life for years! Literal years! She had come so close to dying so many times that she was genuinely confused as to how this could happen to someone! From falling down a flight of stairs to nearly breaking her neck during a cartwheel (despite having so much experience that she could do them with her eyes closed.) Lia had experienced so many near-death experiences that she had become entirely immune to the weird circumstances happening around her. Eventually, the bad luck did catch her. She was minding her own business, walking through the streets of Seattle when a coin rolled across the ground and tripped someone else, who dropped an umbrella, which she tripped over. Her fall had her land directly into the flow of moving traffic. She was then hit by a small square-body pickup truck. It had a small sticker of a smug smiling face attached to its front bumper. Lia had died because of what was essentially a coin. A coin had actually managed to kill a human being. Not just any human, but one of the most feared people within the US. Warnings for all readers: -This novel will (at some point) contain lesbian sex scenes. -System tag doesn't mean in the most literal way. (you'll find out more if you read it.) -This may become a Yuri harem novel (haven't decided.) -Will contain very strong LGBTQ+ themes

Blade of EternityBlade of Eternity

"Eternal Rebirth: The Fall of the Gods" In a universe where gods control the fabric of reality, one man is born destined to undo everything. Arin, once a hopeless, insignificant child, is abandoned by his family and forced to survive in a world that seems indifferent to his existence. But the truth lies hidden within him—Arin is the most powerful being in the cosmos, and his destiny is far from ordinary. When a chance encounter with Amara, a girl with a terminal illness, ignites a spark of love, Arin's life is forever changed. He vows to protect her, only to watch her die at the hands of a godly conspiracy. Consumed by rage, Arin awakens his dormant power and embarks on a quest for revenge, turning from a helpless boy into a dangerous force of nature. Guided by an enigmatic girl who helps him unlock his true abilities, Arin begins to confront the gods—immortal beings who have ruled the universe with an iron fist. In his journey, he learns that his powers are not just the result of fate, but are tied to a greater cosmic design, a cycle of creation and destruction that has spanned eons. As he unravels the mystery of his origins, he discovers a truth even more terrifying: the gods' fall was merely the beginning of an ancient and destructive cycle, and he is destined to either save or destroy the universe. With his newfound abilities, Arin wages a war against the gods themselves, battling their remnants in a brutal quest for vengeance and justice. But as he grows more powerful, the line between hero and monster begins to blur. Each victory comes at a steep price, and Arin must wrestle with the weight of his immortality and the consequences of his actions. His rage threatens to consume him, and the once-human boy begins to question if the price of vengeance is worth the destruction of everything he holds dear. In the final chapters, Arin must confront Zeraphon, an ancient god of creation and destruction, who seeks to merge with him and remake the universe in his image. Faced with the choice of becoming an immortal god or sacrificing himself for the greater good, Arin must make the ultimate decision—one that will either end the cycle or condemn the universe to eternal chaos. "Eternal Rebirth: The Fall of the Gods" is a high-stakes, action-packed novel of revenge, redemption, and cosmic balance. Filled with epic battles, shocking betrayals, and a deeply personal journey, it explores the consequences of power, immortality, and the price of love in a universe on the brink of collapse.

On Top of the Food Chain

After a fateful accident, Kazuki's life is shattered when he begins to suspect he has become a Ghoul, a creature that feeds on human flesh. As he delves deeper into the shadowy world of Ghouls, Poachers and Awakened, he learns something worse. The truth is—he's a Ghoul-Devourer, a rare being that must consume other Ghouls to survive. To survive the horrors of this new life, he must hunt, kill, and consume his way to the top of the food chain. But as his humanity slips away, will he succumb to the monster he fears or become the ultimate predator? Also, the strongest Ghoul of the past era has taken him as a disciple. *** What to expect: - Unique Power System(s) - Weak to strong to OP. - 0 Confidence MC turns into a Cold and Calculating Anti-Hero. - Only One Love Interest - Climax which leaves more Questions than Answers (Will be Answered in upcoming stories set in the same verse) *** The end of Part 1 of Vol 1 (Ch-25) is where I'd say the real story starts. The end of Part 2 of Vol 1 is where the Protagonist would become cold and calculative. The starting chapters will feel very Tokyo Ghoulish, and trust me that's intentional as that heavily inspired me, but please don't drop this until you reach further ahead in the story. This story shapes up the world I'm trying to create, filled with different factions, goals, and the threads of fate guiding them. If you are giving this a chance then I'm very thankful. *** I'll be uploading 5 chapters every week!
